Rihanna’s 2012 Grammy outfit may or may not violate the new Grammy dress code. CBS has issued a memo to Grammy Awards attendees against baring too much skin at the ceremony Sunday.

NEW YORK – CBS is asking stars not to bare too much skin at the Grammy Awards on Sunday.

The network requests that “buttocks and female breasts are adequately covered” for the televised award show. The memo sent out Wednesday also warned against “see-through clothing,” exposure of “the genital region” and said that “thong type costumes are problematic.”

Representatives for CBS and the Recording Academy declined to comment on Thursday. Deadline Hollywood first reported the memo.
